On October 7, 2026, OpenAI began rolling out a GPT-6 model in the Chat tab of ChatGPT, as announced in GPT-6 and Intelligent UI for everyone. OpenAI said the model was built for the more than 1.2 billion people who use ChatGPT each week.

What the rollout included

• Intelligent UI let answers include graphics, tappable buttons, forms, charts and interactive experiences. It was built from a library of native streamable components plus a compiler.
• The model interleaved thinking and answering.
• OpenAI said GPT-6 Extra High began answering as quickly as GPT-5.6 Medium while scoring better overall than GPT-5.6 Extra High.
• OpenAI said GPT-6 Instant started answering 44% sooner on average than GPT-5.6 Instant on questions that need web search.
• The rollout began on October 7 for Plus, Pro, Business and Enterprise in the Chat tab, and reached Free and Go users from the following day.
• The model was powered by GPT-6 Sol on Plus, Pro, Business and Enterprise, and by GPT-6 Luna on Free and Go.

What it meant for people who build with AI

Free users got a GPT-6-family model, and generated interactive UI became a normal part of chat answers, with buttons, forms and charts among the components.

Work, Codex and the API

OpenAI said the models powering Work and Codex were not changing as part of this release. The same day, the API's chat-latest snapshot was updated to the latest ChatGPT model as of that day, as listed in the OpenAI API changelog.
